With the failed plan for a new school behind them, selectmen and school committee members took tentative steps to start over.

The Tisbury School has announced its third quarter honor roll for the 2017-2018 school year.

The Tisbury selectmen voted not to support the school building committee in its bid for more time after the failed vote on the new school last week.

The Tisbury school building committee voted Monday to ask the Massachusetts School Building Authority for more time to sort through options.

Turning out in large numbers at their annual town election Tuesday, Tisbury voters narrowly rejected the $46.6 million new school project.

Tisbury voters head to the polls today to make a final decision on a $46.6 million new school project. Polls are open from noon to 8 p.m. at the public safety building on Spring street. Heavy turnout is expected.
